What Meghan Markle’s Lawyer Just Accused A Senior Royal Official Of Doing

Meghan Markle isn’t backing down when it comes to her lawsuit against Associated Newspapers, and her lawyer has just made a bombshell claim. In the documentary, “The Princes and the Press,” an interesting allegation came to light. Meghan’s lawyer, Jenny Afia, accused a senior royal official of working against the Duchess of Sussex. “Ted Verity, the editor of The Mail on Sunday, said in his signed witness statement that he had been given information that helped support Associated’s [The Mail on Sunday’s] case. He said this information came from a senior palace source and he said in his witness statement this was not ‘gossip or tittle tattle,'” Newsweek reports. “What it means is that a senior figure in the Royal Household according to The Mail on Sunday was passing him information in order to help defeat the duchess’s case,” Afia added.

This latest piece to the unfolding narrative comes on the heels of a Daily Mail report that the royal family is unhappy following the BBC’s decision to “[give]…credibility” to “overblown and unfounded claims” by airing a new documentary about Prince William and Prince Harry’s ongoing rift.
